Nomadic Soul

I don't usually feel so strongly about any given look, but the one featured above, I just absolutely love. I copied the eyes from a picture of a model found on the internet - not sure where the picture came from exactly or what designer, show, or makeup artist. In any case, I'm most pleased because it turned out so well and was done in such a way that I don't think I would have ever thought to do, left to my own devices! This particular combination of colors is not something I would ever think of.

Here I had used the Karl for Shu Uemura Smoky Velvet palette (for blush, too - and even used the ridiculously tiny included brush to apply it) and Shiseido Lacquer Rouge in Deep Coral. The white sparklies on the lid were much nicer and sparklier in person.

This is just an eye look using the Lorac Pro palette! You don't get to see the face pictures because I am not keen on them at all. I was sick, and it really showed. :(

I'm having a hard time remember exactly what was used here, but I know for sure that the stars are Armani Eyes to Kill Intense eyeshadow in Blue Beetle (over top of a dark gray cream stick) and Lipstick Queen Hello Sailor lipstick. I believe that I used Tarte AC Stellar blush as well as BECCA blush in Gypsy (lightly, sort of as a highlight).

And last, but not least, an eye look using Stila's In the Moment palette and UD Psychedelic Sister eyeliner pencil...I think.

My apologies for not posting in a long time. It seems like every day I delete I don't know how many super annoying spam comments from both my blogs (most coming in to my nail blog), but rarely ever see a comment from a real, live, caring person! It's not even the lack of comments that bothers me - it's more the spam. SPAMMERS BE GONE! Ugh. Okay, glad I got that off my chest. Otherwise, and more importantly, life has been extra challenging, emotional, and sad for me as of late. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you'll forgive my absence. I think that within a few weeks I'll likely be in a better headspace.

About Me

I love color, beauty, creativity, animals, and being care-free. I'm not care-free, in reality, but would like to think it's an attainable state of being! I do like to bend the rules when it serves a greater purpose and I'm all about being authentic. Here I am, take me or leave me! I suppose I'd call myself a sensitive soul. I think I feel things more deeply and ponder things more thoroughly than your average bear.
